Why Do People View the MS Acquisition of ABK as a "Good Thing?"

[SvennoJ]

Short term gain, instant gratification, people can't look further than the next few years.

If the deal goes through:
- Expect more acquisitions
- Game ownership to be phased out further
- Even more focus on live service, MTX and season passes
- Future game design to be even more based on stimulating addictive behavior
- GP / PS+ Extra prices to go up more
- Less choice / more fragmented choice in the long run
- Lower quality games

Anyway that's what happened with tv and movies.
